## Tools
- openchargemap_find_stations (openchargemap-mcp-server: find stations) - Find EV charging stations from the global Open Charge Map registry near a point or within a bounding box. Provide either a center (latitude + longitude + distance) or a boundingbox; optionally scope to a country with countrycode. This tool is coordinate-native and does not geocode place names — resolve a place like "Ballard, Seattle" to coordinates with openstreetmap_geocode first, then pass them here. Filter by connector type, minimum power (kW), operator/network, usage type (public/free/membership), charge level, operational status, and minimum charge points. Filter IDs are integers — resolve a connector or network name to its ID with openchargemap_lookup_reference (e.g. "CCS" -> 33). Each result includes title, address, distance from the search point, connections (type, power, count), operator, access rules, registry operational status, and the last-verified date. Endpoint: https://openchargemap.caseyjhand.com/mcp
- openchargemap_get_station (openchargemap-mcp-server: get station) - Get the full record for one Open Charge Map station by its numeric OCM ID. Returns every connection (type, level, power, current, quantity, per-connection status), the operator and network, usage and access restrictions (pay-at-location, membership, access key), the number of charge points, general comments, usage cost, the data provider, media, and verification recency. Set includeComments to also return community check-ins inline. Endpoint: https://openchargemap.caseyjhand.com/mcp
- openchargemap_lookup_reference (openchargemap-mcp-server: lookup reference) - Resolve Open Charge Map reference data to the integer IDs that openchargemap_find_stations filters require. Pick a category and pass a name or code to resolve — "CCS" or "Tesla Supercharger" -> a connectiontypeid, "ChargePoint" -> an operatorid, "Public - Pay At Location" -> a usagetypeid, "France" or "FR" -> a country. Omit the query to browse the whole category. Endpoint: https://openchargemap.caseyjhand.com/mcp
- openchargemap_get_station_comments (openchargemap-mcp-server: get station comments) - Read community check-ins and comments for one Open Charge Map station — the real-world reliability signal beyond the operator-reported registry status. Returns user comments and fault reports with ratings and dates, alongside the station's current registry status and last-verified date, surfacing mismatches like "listed operational, but the last few check-ins report a fault."
